Miss Polly Had A Dolly

Miss Polly had a dolly
Who was sick, sick, sick,
So she called for the doctor
To be quick, quick, quick;
The doctor came
With his bag and his hat,
And he knocked at the door
With a rat-a-tat-tat.

He looked at the dolly
And he shook his head,
And he said "Miss Polly,
Put her straight to bed."
He wrote out a paper
For a pill, pill, pill,
"I'll be back in the morning
With the bill, bill, bill."

The eensy weensy (or itsy bitsy) spider

The eensy weensy (or itsy bitsy) spider
 Crawled up the water spout
('Climb' up arm)
 Down came the rain
(Wiggle fingers down from head to waist)
 And washed the spider out
(Throw arms to sides)
 Out came the sun and dried up all the rain
(Raise hands above head, make circle for sun)
 And the eensy weensy spider
 Crawled up the spout again.
('Climb' up arm again)

Baa, baa, black sheep

Baa, baa, black sheep,
Have you any wool?

And one for the little boy
Who lives down the lane.

Have you any wool?
Yes sir, yes sir,

Mary had a little lamb

Mary had a little lamb,
Little lamb, little lamb,
Mary had a little lamb,
Its fleece was white as snow

And everywhere that Mary went,
Mary went, Mary went,
Everywhere that Mary went
The lamb was sure to go

 School one day, school one day
 It followed her to school one day
 Which was against the rules.

It made the children laugh and play,
Laugh and play, laugh and play,
It made the children laugh and play
To see a lamb at school.

I am a pizza

I am a pizza
With extra cheese
From tomatoes
Sauce is squeezed
Onions and mushrooms
Oregano
I am a pizza, ready to go

No anchovies
Or phony bologna

Order by phone

Peppers on top
Out of the oven
Into the box

Into the car and
Upside down
I am a pizza, dropped on the ground

I was a pizza
I was the best

Now I’m a mess!

Down By the Bay

For if I do

"Did you ever see a whale
With a polka dot tail
Down by the bay?"

Combing his hair
Down by the bay?”

Each of us is a flower
Growing in life’s garden

Moon, cool me with your night
Wind, bring the gentle rain
Earth, take my roots down deep.

(Put hands in pockets)
And your pockets in your pants,

And all the little fishies do the
(Wiggle hips and do a little dance)
Hootchy Kootchy dance!
